Our Hospital

Colonial Terrace Animal Hospital was established at its current location in September of 1972. It was originally founded by Dr. James Stark and Dr. Dan Betts. Dr. Stark remained at Colonial Terrace for 38 years, until his death in 2010. Throughout that time, many changes and updates occurred as the practice grew. A building was added in 1988 to allow separate and additional space for boarding of animals. The hospital was almost completely remodeled in 2006, adding a separate cat waiting area, an additional exam room, a staff room, an enhanced surgical suite, a dental/ultrasound room, and additional office space. We also offer dog grooming. These changes have allowed us to better accommodate our patients and staff, and help to continue to offer the high level of care our clients have come to expect over the years.
